Starbucks says turnaround strategy ‘continuing to gain traction’

The company said, “The company shared early evidence that its turnaround strategy is continuing to gain traction: In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, Starbucks (SBUX) delivered same-store sales growth in the U.S. and every major global market; Green Apron Service, fully rolled out in North America company-operated coffeehouses, is driving improved service times, higher throughput and stronger customer satisfaction; Coffeehouse ‘uplifts’ are restoring comfort and community – the company expects to add more than 25,000 cafe seats across the U.S. by the end of fiscal 2026.”
